From this months news letter.... :)

Member Spotlight: fyre_storm!

We’re pleased to have the honor of featuring a man in this month’s spotlight - if you haven’t already met him, now’s your chance to meet fyre_storm! He’s a 27-year-old FedEx worker from Fullerton, California. At a height of 5 feet 6 inches and a weight of 388 pounds, fyre_storm didn’t have any health problems – yet! But he knew they were coming because he saw his aunt suffer from obesity-related health conditions before passing away. So, even though he didn’t have “high anything,” as he puts it, fyre_storm decided to get the sleeve, and his surgery was in September of last year. He lost 72 pounds in three months, and so far has lost a total of 93 pounds! It hasn’t been easy for him – fyre_storm describes his journey as a roller coaster! The VerticalSleeveTalk.com community has helped him through many panicked occasions! Members have told him that whatever he’s going through will pass. Each time, they’ve been right – his VSG trouble has gone away. Fyre_storm wants everyone who gets picked on for obesity or is horrified at themselves to know that the sleeve was worth it to him. Each pound he lost has been painful, but he wouldn’t go back to his former self. Thanks, fyre_storm, for being in our Member Spotlight and for being a great community member!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
